Re: Also consider Bluetooth

Requiring this permission for such a wide array of things renders the permission a bit pointless, as users will rapidly learn they have to just accept it in order to do most of what they want to do.

Exactly the point of it methinks.

They are training you to press the 'accept' button on location tracking, so that you will just automatically accept it when a popup that matters prompts for it.
